Robstown police searching for three men who stole copper wire, truck from warehouse

ROBSTOWN - Three men stole copper wire, a laptop and a truck from a Robstown warehouse Saturday night, police said.

Robstown Police Department Lt. Gilbert Gomez said surveillance video from the warehouse shows the men entering the building about 10 p.m.

“They cut the lock on the front gate to enter the property and lifted up an aluminum side of the building to get in,” Gomez said.

Gomez said the men were in the building for more than an hour.

“They definitely took their time and weren’t in a hurry,” Gomez said.

Gomez said the men stole rolls of copper wire in various sizes, insulated copper wire, a laptop and a gas leaf blower.

“Then they loaded everything into a 2010 maroon Ford F-150 truck that was inside the warehouse and drove off in it,” Gomez said.

Gomez said the men appear to be in their early 20s. One man wore a black shirt and black pants or dark jeans. The second man wore a ski mask and a black trenchcoat. The third man was wearing a black shirt as well.

Anyone with information is urged to call Robstown police at 361-387-3531.
